ERS Custom Search Service
If you can't find the information you need—or can't spend the time looking for it—request a Custom Search, a specially prepared information packet on any K-12 education topic.
What kind of research can I ask for?
Whether the subject is broad, like mathematics curriculum, or as specific as research on number sense, an experienced Issues Analyst can prepare a Custom Search for you. ERS staff utilize a vast network of electronic databases, a 20,000+ volume library, and other print and online resources to get what you need.
How do I request a Custom Search?
Requesting a Custom Search is easy. Simply contact ERS by phone at (800) 791-9308, by fax at (800) 791-9309, or by email at ers ers.org. Or, click here to complete our request form!
Specify the type and amount of information you need, being as specific as possible regarding your topic, the grade levels you are addressing, and any other details regarding your request that you can provide.
How much does it cost?
The base cost for a Custom Search is $180. Subscribing school districts and organizations are eligible for a number of free Custom Searches, based on the level of subscription, with additional requests charged at the 50% discount rate of $90 each. Call ERS for additional details regarding your subscription and the availability of free requests.
When can I expect it?
The completion time for a Custom Search is about five to seven business days from the day your request is received by ERS. We understand, though, that sometimes you need this vital research quickly. We are happy to provide express service for an additional fee. Please call for details.
